Our teacher:
Brianna Wright is a community-centred mother and educator with a Bachelor of Secondary Education, majoring in Biological Sciences. Her experience is rooted in community: teaching Science and Math in a remote Inuvialuit community in the Arctic and in Enoch Cree Nation, and facilitating Farm Play School and Prairie Learning Community at Good Note Farm. Brianna's passion is guiding hands-on, project based learning, while working alongside the rhythms of nature.
Parent Volunteer Requirement:
Each parent will be required to volunteer for one of the days, so that we have 2 parent volunteers per day. Volunteer duties may include: supporting students in hands-on activities, supervising students on the farm, assisting with Brianna's child who will be on site.
